Wa Yesterday cOtrimattiated to our Readers the substance of the wentieth Bulletin of the trench artily,. and 'we nog' present to them the Bulletin it». The 'most interesting part of it, as we stated yesterday, is, that whi9h concerns our Army., We 'have reason to believe that it has no occasion to be apprehensive of the overwhelming powcr of. "the . Enetny, and it has certainly had the effeet assisting the Spattiar46, ‘ by a diversioa, which also in. the skirmishes that took place between our cavalry and that of the ii‘rench, has ',given the 'latter, no cause forexultation, but on the contrary, must render them very averse to, meet us, unless When they. have a numerical superiority, with which it , would be the height of 106 to contend. Another' interesting; part of this Bulletin is, that-which relates tc the .Capital of Spain, which ,it' appears that BUQ.N,ATIARTE is endeavouring to render a French gar- • rison, whatever may he his success as to the Cowl ! 'try at large. Here, while he overawes Madrid, lie will at least have an opportunity of putting all his engines of treachery to work.,itt:order. , to seduce and betray, while he is entleaVdoting to crush and enslave. ,With his charatleriStie: tals,ebood, he has aceused our army of desertion, that army whom, with all his arrogance and all his Vanity, he dares not meet on' equal temis, ,Upou the whale, the tone *of the .kiulletin is not of that boastful and 'triumptthat which we have been .ac cuitotned to receive from him in his lortneropera:- ki . i.)ns, and, therefore, if the Spatiiards are but true te,theinscives, they, - can have little chat, with assigtance of this Country, they rutty finally bat . - the eUarts of their intawous and unprincipled Invader: • , • A Gentleman who has been for sorne tio36 resi dent in the Southern Provinces of Spain, and who is pit arrived io London, assures us that the accounts which !lA% e reached 114 of the. enthu,i -0,11) wiliet) prevails in Andalusia, Greo,ula, and 241nrcia, so far, front being exaggerated aanally faits short rat the troth, and-he entertains no doubt that, if the people are properly ltd on, and their resources properly,tliyeted, they. will be able 'tioccesstally to resit their Invaders. "l'he treachery of some of 'their Leaders, has ee.:tainly given the .',llerny very considerable adyant.ages, but ut the same iirue it proves that the Spaniards" have.
